It appears that <a href="http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1094150#post7769622">they have been sold</a>, and was having some transitional issues. Earlier this month Nancy, the new 5ITE account manager who also represents <a href="http://www.swiftco.net/">Swift Communications</a> (new owner of 5ITE), contacted me regarding to their new LowEndBox offer. So here it is &#8212; use coupon code <b>LEB2012</b> to get <b>25% off</b> recurring discount on all their <a href="http://www.5ite.com/vps.html">VPS plans</a>. &#8220;VZ-1&#8243; would be <b>$5.96/month</b> after the discount. <a href="https://cp.5ite.com/cart.php?a=add&amp;pid=9&amp;promocode=LEB2012">Sign up link here</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>256MB guaranteed/384MB burstable memory</li>
<li>30GB storage</li>
<li>3TB/month data transfer</li>
<li>OpenVZ/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>Servers in either Nuremberg Germany or Chicago IL. This is actually worse when you compare it with <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/5ite-5-57-384mb-openvz-vps-in-chicago-or-germany/">previous offer given by Andrew</a>, although the ordering link still works on that. They are now a part of a bigger company also means that you might be able to get <a href="http://www.swiftco.net/contactus.html">phone support</a>, and VPS might actually moved to <a href="http://www.swiftco.net/network.html">migrated to their own facility</a> in the future. Well, <a href="http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1117239">recent review</a> wasn&#8217;t so positive. Maybe it&#8217;s just the migration pain, but hopefully things will become more stable.</p>

<p>They take PayPal only, and have their servers with ColoCrossing in Chicago IL.

Still on the card, @Chris &amp; @Adam? BuffaloVPS do have stable servers and quick support, being on ChicagoVPS/ColoCrossing&#8217;s infrastructure.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.chicagovps.net/"><img src="http://www.lowendbox.com/media/images/chicagovps.jpg" class="screenshot" alt="ChicagoVPS"/></a> Update November offer from <a href="http://www.chicagovps.net/"><b>ChicagoVPS</b></a>.</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Professional</b></li>
<li>1024MB memory</li>
<li>30GB storage</li>
<li>1500GB/month data transfer</li>
<li><b>$7/month</b> (Coupon code <b>1024</b>, <a href="http://billing.chicagovps.net/cart.php?a=add&amp;pid=13&amp;promocode=1024">Direct Signup Link</a>)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><b>Standard</b></li>
<li>512MB memory</li>
<li>20GB storage</li>
<li>1000GB/month data transfer</li>
<li><b>$5/month</b> (Coupon code <b>512</b>, <a href="http://billing.chicagovps.net/cart.php?a=add&amp;pid=12&amp;promocode=512">Direct Signup Link</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p>Those are OpenVZ/SolusVM plans. You&#8217;ll find that $7 for &#8220;Professional&#8221; has actually the most expensive &#8220;offer&#8221; from ChicagoVPS since May (<a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/tag/chicagovps-net/">their list of previous offers here</a>). I guess the problem with random discount is that those who are cheap and have time would actually wait until a better promotion is available &#8212; a possible lost of potential customer there.</p>
<p>You should also be able to see various benchmark posted by their clients in the previous posts. A mixed result really, but on the reflection of <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/chicagovps-5-1gb-openvz-vps-in-chicago/?comment-47811">Chris&#8217; comment here</a>, at least they have tried hard to keep their VPS stable. According to my <a href="http://www.lowendtalk.com/wiki/chicagovps.net">tracking</a>, ChicagoVPS.net&#8217;s home page is definitely one of the more stable ones out there (only a brief outage in September in 12 months).</p>
<p>Their servers are with ColoCrossing in Chicago.</p>

First of all, they have updated their website &#8212; more subtle contrast and overall a nicer website. They have also updated their OpenVZ plans, and their real low end plan &#8220;VPS 1&#8243; is now even cheaper &#8212; with special discount too!</p>

</ul>
<p>PayPal, Google Checkout or credit card. Servers with FDC Servers in Chicago IL (test IP: 208.77.23.240), and these have RAID6 drives. Domain has been registered since Feb 2010. No real name is attached to the WHOIS record, but the address is near Chicago and is the same as WORLD-HOST.ORG (that does DNS for VPSCheap.net). WORLD-HOST.ORG is owned by Kristian R. who is linked with proxy and file uploading sites&#8230; Whether they are related &#8212; I have no idea, but hey, that&#8217;s what WHOIS tells me assuming people are filling them correctly.</p>
<p>Their <a href="http://vpscheap.net/aup.html">AUP</a> has a mix of shared/VPS hosting sections. IRC (client or server) is generally not acceptable.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://kwdservices.com"><img src="http://www.lowendbox.com/media/images/kwdservices.jpg" class="screenshot" alt="KWD Services"/></a> Alex from <a href="http://kwdservices.com/"><b>KWD Services</b></a> has sent me a note about their new <a href="http://kwdservices.com/ganeti/">KVM/Ganeti based virtual servers</a>. Yes that portal page might rival TinyVZ and Prgmr.com in terms of &#8220;simplicity&#8221;, but <a href="http://code.google.com/p/ganeti/">Ganeti</a>, <em>&#8220;cluster virtual server management software tool built on top of existing virtualization technologies such as Xen or KVM&#8221;</em>, is actually quite nice looking (check the <a href="http://kwdservices.com/ganeti/tutorial.html">tutorial here</a>). You can order <a href="https://kwdservices.com/clients/cart.php?gid=10">with this link here</a>, and I think you do have to order at least one unit of all 3 components to get a working VPS. The component pricings are:</p>
<ul>
<li>$2.56/month/256MB of memory</li>
<li>$1.50/month/10GB storage</li>
<li>$1.00/month/IPv4 address</li>
</ul>
<p>Combining with <b>100Mbps unmetered bandwidth</b>, minimum spending is <b>$5.06/month</b> and you get</p>
<ul>
<li>256MB memory</li>
<li>10GB storage</li>
<li>100Mbps unmetered bandwidth</li>
<li>KVM/Ganeti</li>
</ul>
<p>You can pay by credit card, PayPal or check/money order. Use coupon code <b>halloweenbeta</b> to get <b>50% off</b> the first month. Servers in Chicago IL with Steadfast Network. They actually leased the servers from FutureHosting (test IP: 199.48.254.140). Currently in beta looking for a few brave souls :)</p>
<p>KWD Services was founded in 2004 in Virginia, and currently provides a wide range of services &#8212; from web hosting to IT solutions to Internet radio to disc jockey (!!) &#8212; probably not all at the same time. They are also the one who provided the <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/pluggr-info-4-50month-sheevaplug-dedicated-server-140-setup/">SheevaPlug services we featured last year</a>.</p>

Use promo code <b>LEB30</b> to get <b>30% off</b> recurring discount on their <a href="https://www.yourdomaingoeshere.com/openvz.php">OpenVZ VPS plans</a>, when you select annual payment.

<li>10GB storage</li>
<li>500GB/month data transfer on 100Mbps</li>
<li>OpenVZ/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>Since there&#8217;s no burstable memory here, it probably won&#8217;t be as useful as other yearly 128MB plans from other providers. You can use either PayPal or Google Checkout. Currently there are two data centers available for the VPS1 plan &#8212; QuadraNet in Los Angeles CA with (2) availability, and Continuum in Chicago with (30). YDGH has <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/yourdomaingoeshere-4-50-512mb-openvz-vps-in-dallas/?comment-40628">moved out from Dallas</a> back in July/August. &#8220;LEB30&#8243; can also be used on VPS2 which gives you 341MB/512MB memory, 20GB storage and 1000GB/month data for $40.60/year. If annual payment is not your thing, there&#8217;s also <b>LEB10</b> that gives you <b>10% off</b> on monthly plans.</p>
<p>YouDomainGoesHere have been around since early 2008, and has been on LowEndBox <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/ydgh-5-512mb-openvz-vps/">since mid-last year</a>.</p>

Cheapest plan, &#8220;VPS-256&#8243; is <b>$3.75/month</b> after the discount. <a href="https://www.enzu.com/account/cart.php?a=add&amp;pid=214&amp;carttpl=modern&amp;promocode=lowendbox">Sign up VPS-256 here</a>.</p>

<li>Xen/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>Payment in credit card or PayPal. They have recently updated their offers (even the BudgetVM ads showing here are of the wrong pricing), and standardize their servers. Those are dual Opteron 2356 nodes with 32GB RAM and 4x WD RE4 drives in RAID10. On the ordering page you can also choose between 4 different <a href="http://budgetvm.com/virtual-server-network.php">data centers</a> &#8212; Chicago IL with Continuum (test IP: 64.79.104.200), Dallas TX with CoreXchange (test IP: 108.60.198.121), Los Angeles CA with HE.net (test IP: 184.105.219.240) and Romania (test IP: 188.215.83.87).</p>
<p>BudgetVM is part of Enzu brand, who sells SAN-backed Xen VPS. Nick seems to be a veteran in VPS hosting by reading some of his older posts on WHT (and how many companies he worked/advertised for). He also founded Virpus with Kenneth according to <a href="http://virpus.com/about/">Virpus&#8217; about page</a>. At least he knows what he is doing :)</p>

The cheapest plan, &#8220;OVS-1&#8243;, is at <b>$5.95/month</b> which you can <a href="http://tildehost.com/clients/cart.php?a=add&amp;pid=3">use this link to order</a>. It has</p>

<li>OpenVZ/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>PayPal is the only supported payment method. Servers with SingleHop in Chicago IL (test IP: 69.175.119.19). TildeHost is part of <a href="http://codehill.com/">CodeHill LLC</a>, a US-based IT-solution company that has its registered address in Delaware (like most US coporation?) Or maybe they are <a href="http://www.guru.com/freelancers/Software-Developer-Web-Programmer-Database-Consultant-Smart-Phone-Mobile-Applications/United-Arab-Emirates/Abu-Dhabi/624513">based in Abu Dhabi</a>, which rwhois of the test IP also confirms. I can&#8217;t seem to be able to find TildeHost mentioned much on the net though, nor have them tried to advertise on WHT. Domain has been registered since April 2010, but little evidence that it has been selling VPS until recently. Count that as a new provider run by experienced developers.</p>
<p><a href="http://tildehost.com/acceptable-use-policy/">AUP here</a> which is nicely laid out. Basically no illegal stuff no spamming, etc and no mention of IRC or proxy/VPN service.</p>

Use promo code <b>1024</b> to bring their Professional <a href="http://chicagovps.net/openvz.html">OpenVZ plan</a> to <b>$5/month</b> (from $14.95).

<li>OpenVZ/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>Servers with ColoCrossing in Chicago. IPv6 is still &#8220;coming soon&#8221;, and there is no burstable memory with their OpenVZ plans. Much has already been said <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/tag/chicagovps-net/">from their previous offers</a>. They do have some solid hardware and support, although performance can be hit and miss sometimes (kind of things you expect from probably highly over-subscribed OpenVZ plans). Check them out if you are looking for cheap VPS with lots of memory near US East Coast.</p>

It&#8217;s called &#8220;Quad Core Unlimited&#8221; this time, and can be ordered through <a href="https://customer.binarycpu.com/index.php?/cart/quad-core-unlimited/">this sign up link</a>. At <b>$6/month</b> it comes with</p>
<ul>
<li>128MB guaranteed/256MB burstable memory</li>
<li>20GB storage</li>
<li>10Mbps unmetered bandwidth</li>
<li>OpenVZ/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>Payment in either PayPal, Google Checkout or AlertPay. Coupon code <b>lowendbox80</b> gives 80% off first month so the first invoice would be $1.20. Servers hosted with SingleHop in Chicago. The &#8220;Quad Core&#8221; here are Xeon E5520 which is <em>not too bad</em>, although I am not sure how many other guests are you sharing with. When you compare it with <a href="http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/binary-computer-solutions-4-95-512mb-openvz-vps-in-chicago/">their previous offer</a> ($4.95/month 512MB OpenVZ VPS, which is still available), it does not seem to be that great, unless you do get some CPU grunt.</p>
<p>Domain was registered in November 2008, and they still have DNS problem with non-redundant NS. <a href="https://customer.binarycpu.com/index.php?/page/terms-of-service/">ToS here</a> for those who are looking for it.</p>

And from the offer they seem to understand what LowEndBox is really about &#8212; running services on a low-spec box rather than just a <em>cheap VPS</em>. Welcome to 2009, where you can still buy VPS with just 64MB of memory. However since <a href="http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/185">people are discussing how low can their VPS&#8217;s memory go</a>, I might as well post this offer. You can get the following for <b>$3.99/month</b> with <a href="https://secure.nexeontech.com/~sdeals/cart.php?a=add&amp;pid=26">this sign up link</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>64MB guaranteed/128MB burstable memory</li>
<li>5GB storage</li>
<li>500GB/month data transfer</li>
<li>OpenVZ/SolusVM</li>
</ul>
<p>Payment in either PayPal or credit card. Servers in Chicago with SingleHop. VPSDeals/ServerDeals is part of <a href="http://www.nexeontech.com/">Nexeon Technologies</a> that was founded in 2008.</p>
